We have three ways to enrol students

  • The easiest and most basic way is student self-enrollment with the Classroom Key which is automatically generated for every new Classroom instance. You can view/modify the Classroom Key on the Classroom tab. Teachers should share the key with their Students, then the students simply need to register for a FREE student account, click JOIN CLASS and then enter the Classroom Key
  • Another way is to use the Quick Add tool where you can add a single student by email address.
  • The final way is to use the Bulk Student Add tool where you use a spreadsheet to import multiple students.
